Encyclopedic overview
Illustration from 1920 edition of George MacDonald's novel The Princess and the Goblin
Fantasy literature is literature set in an imaginary universe, often but not always without any locations, events, or people from the real world. Magic, the supernatural and magical creatures are common in many of these imaginary worlds. Fantasy literature may be directed at both children and adults.
